Ready to go, chillin', waiting for dad
Luckily she got her looks from her mother
Utah lake, Wasatch range beyond
Killer pumpkin pie ice cream at the red barn in Santaquin, UT
"Donuts and ice cream: like two pairs of dirty underwear."
--Jim Gaffigan
Ice cream + 45 degree temps = cold girl, so I gave her my Gerbings heated jacket liner and gloves
Aaaahhhh! A giant hand is attacking me!
Plugged in, thawing out and warming up
Signs like these are harbingers of good times ahead...
View from 8000 feet
Skeletal Aspens
Utah Lake again, about 4000 feet below now
Salt creek overlook; if you look closely you can see the road waaay down there
Finally stopped for lunch about 4 p.m.
During lunch my wife texted me and asked when I'd be home, and whether she had to make her boyfriend leave early.

Thanks for sharing as usual - great rides, scenery, and family time
I'd have let the kid suffer though, and used the Gerbings myself

I had heated grips and an abundance of natural insulation, so I was okay.

What an awesome way to spend the day with your daughter. You're creating memories for her that she will cherish for the rest of her life.
That being said, I can feel how cold that ride was from here!!

I wish my kids had shown some interest in going on rides with me. Now they're grown (college) and the older son occasionally makes noises about getting a dual-sport. Looks like some good times with the kiddo
We will be heading to SLC for our ski vacation this season. Thanks for the pics. Helps get me psyched up for winter!

We mostly feed the kids organic/raw/hormone-free/grass-fed/sprouted grain/raw milk/hippie food so I figure a couple of times a year they need some nitrates and polyunsaturateds and high fructoses.

Forgot to mention: for those who've asked the riding gear is by Baby Biker in the UK. I got it second hand from a forum member a while back. Pretty cool stuff. It's big on her but she can wear it for a few years.
the arms and legs zip/expand also.

Great pics, looks like a beautiful area to ride.
I hope my younger daughter will want to go on rides with me soon, the older one went for one test ride around the block a few years ago and never wanted to get on again.
